Descripción

This third-floor, elevator-accessible apartment (55 m²) was recently refurbished from top to bottom. It is bright and spacious and features a perfect blend of antique furniture and ultramodern utilities.

The building (a 1930s thermal power plant that was closed down in the early 1980s) was, in 2010, converted into luxury designer apartments that feature recycled materials and above all, conserve the original structure—a requirement in Venice. It is a prime example of biotecture.

The main entrance to the apartment opens directly on a bright main room (23.6 m²) that is divided into several areas.

The living area (southeast facing) features a row of windows along the length of the room that overlook Calle Priuli and the garden belonging to Dei Scalzi church. The space is complete with two sofas, an antique wooden secretary desk, a TV, and a fold-down table that seats four, as well as four designer chairs.

Really nicely located appartment in San Polo with everything you need. Really close to the appartement was a exit to the Rio de San Polo, it was a excellent place to relax. We had a really great time there.

Pro: fabulous location, very quiet, convenient and safe. Good value.
Con: impossibly tiny tub/shower which we found dangerous. Tiles needed fixing and could use new shower curtain.
Get detailed apartment location/keys info prior to arriving. We had to pick up keys from the restaurant downstairs and did not know how to locate flat. Arriving after 5pm caused much consternation for us, as we never received promised email with entering instructions.
